Join Jen, Vicki, Sharon and Cheryl as we chat with Cristin Frodella from Google. Learn about the new and exciting things happening with Google Educators. Also, you will be amazed at Dr. Cheri Toledo's class of doctoral students who had their final in the chat room. Over 43 participated in the chat room and 20 of them belonged to Cheri's class. It was a blast. The Women of Web 2.0 gave out A's for class participation.

Here is the chat. Please don't rely on the chat for the links, go to the wiki for Women of Web. I take out the time stamps in the chat, so some numbers may possibily be removed from a URL.
